- Setting the 8j programme of work
- Recognition of Afro-descendant peoples as custodians of biodiversity within the Convention
🚨 ¡Histórico! En la #COP16Colombia se aprobó un gran acuerdo que permitirá:
🌿Creación del órgano subsidiario del Artículo 8J para pueblos indígenas y comunidades locales.
✊🏾 Reconocimiento de los pueblos afrodescendientes como custodios de la biodiversidad en el Convenio.
🌿Establecimiento del programa de trabajo para estas comunidades hasta el 2030.
